Letter: Much to learn on cemetery tour

I would like to clear up some concerns regarding an event taking place in Muncie next month.

The Old West End would like to invite you to a cemetery tour we are having called Beech Grove After Dark on Oct. 18.

We are proud of the history that is Beech Grove and the people that now rest there. Many family names you already know, such as Ball, Meeks, Goldsmith and Kilgore.

Our intent is to give you a tour that will introduce you to some others that are just as noteworthy that you may not be aware of, such as Benjamin V. Cohen who helped FDR write the New Deal. He is just one of the people that we plan on our tour.

Besides the tour, Minnetristia will have a display and there will be refreshments, too.

If you are looking for a scare, there will be plenty of haunted houses around for that. Our tour is informational and fun for all ages and part of the proceeds will be given to Friends of Beech Grove. Because the short walking tour is in the Old Section (Section B), remember to wear good walking shoes. Check out our Facebook page for more information and we hope to see you there.
